One of the things I didn’t know about loose skin.



Recommended Posts

Is that blackheads like to grow within the wrinkle of the loose skin... No matter how much I clean my body, it’s just appears.

Good news, I have collarbones!

Highest weight: 360

Surgery Weight: 339

Current Weight: 274

Date of surgery: June 6th, 2017

I don’t mind if I am losing slowly, it should help the elasticity of my skin go back to normal (I’m still young, only 26.)

Congrats on your losses so far! You are doing great!

Make sure to use lotion after bathing. I find it really helps with skin issues. Body lotion on the body, and a facial moisturizer for the face (I like Cetaphil).

When the skin gets dry after a bath, it makes the skin go into overdrive making oils, but meanwhile the surface is hard and rough, maybe sealed shut a bit, so the oil can't get out easily. Add the constant pressure and friction of skin on skin, bam! Clogged pores.

You may already be using lotion, and if so, then here's hoping someone else has a suggestion...
